"Hold Up" is a laugh-a-minute, they certainly don't make them like they did these days. I am one of the fortunate generation who actually saw the original episodes when it was shown in the late 70s, and I would literally rush to the TV when KRP was on the air.

It's a very true-to-life story every DJ who ever did a remote can relate to. The DJ is out of his comfort zone, the sales rep is blowing sunshine, the client is a demanding weasel, and the engineer doesn't care. Being held up is about the only thing that didn't go wrong at any of my remotes. <br /><br />This episode also shows the irony of the that period: AM radio stations running commercials for stores that sold the technology that was overtaking AM radio.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12098471743485897147noreply@blogger.com
